Food/Training Log: October 9, 2011

FOOD LOG:

 

7:30AM

- Large cup of coffee with 2 creamers

8:15AM

- Half a 37g chocolate whey protein shake

10:00-10:30AM (Post-Workout)

- The other half of my shake

- 16 small green grapes

11:00AM

- Hashbrowns from one peeled potato cooked in coconut oil & seasoned with ground pepper and a tiny bit of salt (hubby nuked them in hot water for 2 minute which reduced the starch)

- 2 eggs cooked over easy in coconut oil. Mixed them up with the hashbrowns

12:45PM

- Two beef patties on a lettuce leaf with a little mayo, mustard & 3 pickle chips

- Side salad of romaine salad mix, mushrooms, a whole sliced roma tomato & Ranch

- 3 homemade french fries

3:00PM

- Can of yellowfin tuna (no soy) straight out of the can with some lemon juice

6:00PM

- Chinese Chicken Salad: Consists of chicken, coleslaw, soy sauce, vinegar, olive oil, garlic, ginger, cinnamon, sesame seeds & one package of dry ramen noodles. This made a big bowl that I had part of, so minimal damage done by the dry ramen.

8:00PM

- About 3/4C plain greek yogurt with just under 1/2tsp sugar free lemon gelatine

 

So my husband brought home some cookie dough because the boys kept asking for cookies. The smell of the chocolate chip cookies was nice and I felt a slight pull to sample. Proud to say that I didn't have a crumb! The feeling of honestly having a good nutrition day is awesome. Sooo much better then wishing I hadn't eaten this or that and having that guilt. Gotta keep that going! =)

 

TRAINING:

Starting a new 3 week program today. Lower body was up first!

 

9:00AM

-Reverse Drop Sets: 5 Series

• 5 Double KB Front Squats with the 35s
• 5 Double KB Front Squats with the 44s
• 5 Double KB Front Squats with the 53s

- Walking Lunges 120yards with two 25lb dumbbells

- 76 Snatches with the 26

This was a total shock to my system which is a great thing! The last 3 weeks we played with tempo using lighter weight with no reps. According to my measurements this morning, that set-up didn't really produce much results. My body seems to respond best so far with the heavier weight/less reps. I'm looking forward to seeing what results the next 3 weeks along with the Snatch Challenge produces.

 

 3,876

-    76= 3,800 Snatches Remaining
